Sorry, but I hate Kristoph here. Reason? He took off Nick's Badge with the help of Drew Misham (and Detective Gumshoe?). However... I don't really seem to hate his brother, since he's concerned about the truth. Not to mention, he never forged an evidence to win a trial to keep his image alive. Given, Kristoph looks amazing outside, but I'm a person who's more likely interested on people's inside rather than the outside too much.

I love Klavier as a character. While everyone considers him as too nice, I think he only does what he believes is right. Does this make him a good foil? FUCK NO he's a terrible rival prosecutor. But he's a good man. He will probably have more roles like the one he had in DD where he helps find the truth. He also gives my favorite line in the series. The law is not perfect. It's full of contradictions. And he's right in the Ace Attorney world the law is anything but perfect and some laws are down-write painful to imagine being passed in any country. There is and has never been anything wrong with a nice character. He should just stay away from going against the Wright Anything Agency. Cause let's face it...the guy's like a walking tutorial character. Giving hints, and kindly working out who really did it with you rather than against you.

Kristoph is on the other hand one of the best villains in the series.

"Follow Your heart out of the darkness! Stand up and rise from the ashes! Back to the start, far from the madness. Come alive again! Break off the chains of hesitation! Your voice will be your salvation! Look to the light of liberation waiting at the end!"

Am I the only one who thinks the story could've possibly improved if Klavier was a defense attorney and Kristoph was the prosecutor. (It makes SENSE. In a way.)

Maybe it could've gone better that way. Maybe not. Who knows, I'm busy pouting over the new game.

Interesting idea

I do think the current arrangement is fine, though. Shows how shitty defense attorneys can be, and conversely, how honorable prosecutors can be. It's kinda like a sort of inversion of the typical personalities of the prosecutors and defense attorneys in game.

I like them about the same to me honest. I prefer Klavier a little more though, mainly because of his personality being so different from other prosecutors, as well as the fact that Kristoph looks and acts so much like my brother that it freaks me out.

Kristoph, he's my favorite character in AJ. Mainly in that the way he manipulated people, in contrast to how Nick manipulated him gave me a lot of food for thought regarding when this sort of thing is morally justified or not. I don't have much against Klavier, just that he didn't feel like a threatening prosecutor, and he was pretty static as a character as well. I mean, he may have gotten less self-centered by the end, but it felt like he was good from beginning to end, which didn't intrigue me much.

I, personally, adore Klavier Gavin... but a lot of the reasons I love him come from fan interpretations and reading between the lines, and a fair bit of headcanon and projection. AJ was slick, stylish, and beautiful, and had phenomenal music, but coherent and fulfilling character arcs were not among its strengths. Klavier was a really interesting concept - a prosecutor just as dedicated to truth and justice as the protagonist - but the writing wasn't well-handled in a lot of ways, I feel, leaving him coming off as incompetent or flaky. But for his dedication to the truth, his glamorous flirtatiousness, his seriousness and work ethic that he tries to hide under his easygoing rock star facade, the way that facade drops and he starts talking with a cold calculatedness reminiscent of Kristoph when he feels threatened, his desperate loyalty to the people he loves and the confusion and despair when those people betrayed him - I love Klavier.

Kristoph was a cool villain - but, again, his motives make little sense and his character arc felt incomplete and unfulfilling.
